Chapter 541: Phoenix Guardians!
When the opponent was about to take a timeout, Coach Brown immediately asked Lonzo to warm up on the sidelines.
Now Bauer has become a non-negligible existence of the 76 team!
Since those two games, the team's head coach, Brown, has taken a fresh look at Ball.
29:28! Although the Suns didn't seem to be able to beat the players on the Philadelphia side in the first quarter of the game.
But Booker on their team keeps scoring!
This gave the Phoenix Suns a lot of confidence.
Back in the second quarter, the Suns' lineup remained the same.
Philadelphia's Ball replaced Bayless.
Because of Ball's outstanding performance, Brown began to study the main stats of his college days.
It was found that Lonzo's template was indeed like Kidd, which means that Ball is good at rebounding and passing.
The game ahead was difficult for him, because Brown had Lonzo on the court to play as a shooting guard......
But Ball didn't have much idea about it, and it would be nice to have him play.
In Philadelphia today, most of the players are basically optimistic about Li Feng, because Li Feng doesn't just get the data himself in the game.
He's still helping his teammates play!
Although Li Feng mainly plays as a scoring guard, what he looks at in the game is a player's scoring ability.
And Li Feng's position is exactly like this!
But as a partial point guard, Li Feng, who is now in the ranks of top guards, has been playing team basketball on the court.
Although Robert still looks at Li Feng a little unpleasantly, Li Feng's approach really can't find fault.
In the arena, even Robert will now take the initiative to cooperate with Li Feng.
Because he has begun to respect such players, Li Feng came to this team, although the salary is very high.
That's more than twice as high as Bayless, who was on their team's max contract last season! But Li Feng didn't come to make money, he came to the team because he really hoped that the 76ers could play a good role!
At first, Iverson was chatting briefly with reporters in the front row of the audience, and when the reporters left, the more they watched the answers to the first quarter, the more fascinated they became.
Li Feng also smiled and raised his arm when he saw the answer on the field.
Seeing his other idol at this time, Li Feng's mood was excited.
In his previous life, in the years when Li Feng and his father watched the game, Li's father had a holiday in 1999.
The living conditions of the two have improved.
But we still watch basketball games together like we did when we were kids! At the dinner table that time, Father Li said that in the current league, the center will not talk about it first.
Boss Qiao's position in his heart is unshakable.
Li Feng understands that just like when he was in college, Kobe's status in the hearts of many classmates cannot be shaken.
Boss Joe was an absolute idol in the hearts of many fans in that era!
At that time, Father Li said that among the guards, there is a man named Bryant and a small man named Iverson, which is really amazing!!
They are like opening a new era in that era when basketball confrontation is still very fierce!
Of course, they are only two of the representatives, the 96 generation, the stars are shining!
At this time, Iverson was already fat. But his indomitable spirit in the game is already in the hearts of many fans!
In the first quarter of the game, Li Feng wanted to go over and say a few words to Iverson, but was rejected by the answer.
He pointed to Coach Brown, the current head coach of the Philadelphia 76ers, meaning that it was the time of the game, so don't be distracted.
Now that he has returned to the team, Li Feng must win the game today!
Other teams are not very easy to do, but the Suns can't say anything if they don't win.
Although they still have some strength defensively.
At the beginning of the game, Ball came to the front court with the ball, and Booker patted Daniels on the shoulder after seeing it, signaling a change of defense.
Then a tough Daniels came to Bauer, and his defence put Lonzo under some pressure.
But in the end, he came to the front court quickly, and in this quarter of the game, Philadelphia asked him to organize the team.
Brown has given him some playing time now, but their team is still going to make the playoffs this season.
Therefore, the requirements for the number of wins in the game are relatively high, especially in the early stage.
So for his average playing time per game, it has only increased a little. Not much. Because Philadelphia still has a lot of players to play this season.
For Brown, it's a test for a manager.
Whoever has less time may be a blow to this player.
The Suns' defense is good in terms of confrontation, but their defense is relatively stiff.
As long as they don't get their predictions right, they can basically dodge.
Simmons got Lonzo's pass and immediately feinted to shake off Warren, but the opponent was not slow to react.
Embiid then got the basketball, which eventually allowed Alex to get a foul.
1 of 2 free throws! The score of the two teams is tied, and the big screen is aimed at Allen Iverson again at this time!
Every time the fans at the scene saw this shot, they couldn't stop cheering.
Iverson was thinking at this time that Li Feng would lead his team to victory in this game.
Booker can be said to be the guardian of Phoenix, although the Suns lost more and won less, but when they win, Booker basically scored a lot of points.
In some losing games, Booker played very hard, but Booker's organizational ability was a little weaker.
These two point guards, Kobe Bryant admires very much.
Usually in the media, or on social media, Kobe Bryant does not hesitate to praise the two young guards.
Recently, Kobe Bryant even said that "if the strength of the two teams is equal, there is nothing wrong with Booker being stronger than Li Feng in scoring", which also caused various conjectures in the media.
Booker rushed directly to the front court with the ball at this time, seeing that there were more opportunities on his side, and he didn't care about his teammates.
A direct pull-out jumper is a three-pointer!
Booker's face is getting more and more hideous tonight! It's scary to look at him.
The main reason is that the more Booker plays, the more dissatisfied and jealous he becomes with Li Feng!
Although both are recognized as top stars today, Booker has been two levels behind Li Feng over the years.
One is the Western Conference Championship Trophy and the other is the Championship Trophy.
For a team that can't even make the playoffs every season, if it weren't for that single-game explosion and 70 points, maybe Booker's reputation would still be not so high now.
From the perspective of having experienced the playoffs and only being able to play the regular season, those who can naturally enter the playoffs will be more impressive.
Because the playoffs are not such an easy place to play, getting seriously injured, fighting, and being eliminated in the playoffs is every team's nightmare.
But if you can get out of the playoffs and make it to the semifinals, even if you are eliminated, it will be enough to go out and blow it.
But Booker doesn't have any of that, he just has the title of scoring great in the regular season.
So when he met Li Feng today, his anger value was getting higher and higher!
The Suns can see it too, but there's not much they can do right now.
If Booker is allowed to play, it will undoubtedly end this game early.
Daniels looked a little embarrassed at this time, he couldn't guard against Lonzo!
Because Lonzo's coordination is very good, his sense of rhythm is not easy for Daniels to grasp right now.
Booker: "Why can't you guard him now?" ”
Daniels: "Lonzo has a good rhythm, I'll try to guard him." ”
Booker: "Let's just watch Li Feng and Ball, Ball is a player who does have two hits." ”
He watched Ball's game at the time.
Booker himself is a player who can play star guard ability when he comes to the league, and Li Feng is also like this, so he still doesn't ask Daniels too harshly.
After Ilyasova saw Li Feng's eyes, he immediately received his pass, and then hit a three-point jumper!
The basketball was given to Booker again, and the players on the Philadelphia side didn't know what to do when they saw Booker.
Booker's shooting feel is very consistent!
And his state of strolling around the field is indeed a textbook attack!
But this time Devin didn't shoot by himself, and if he played like this again, the game might be his own.
With a defense that drew three players from the 76ers, Booker passed the ball to Daniels.
The latter didn't have a three-pointer, Warren tried a three-pointer after receiving the basketball, but hit the iron directly.
Then Chris wanted to dunk after getting the rebound, but Embiid rushed out and pressed him!
Li Feng received the basketball, and Booker immediately pounced. But it's still a step too late.
The basketball was directly thrown out by Li Feng, and Li Feng knew the position of Bauer just now.
At this time, Lang Zuo received a long pass from Li Feng, rushed to the front court and immediately made a layup to score points!
34:32! The fans at the scene today were very excited, not only to see the former superstar Iverson, but also to see such a fierce game!
Both teams didn't want to lose tonight, so they played extremely intensely!
Booker sighed this time and could only go on his own, and the three-point shot was predicted in advance by the players on the Philadelphia side.
There was no way to rush directly to the inside, Embiid was very clever to hide behind, but Ilyasova was not as quick as he reacted.
Directly received the foul, Booker hit 2 free throws!
At this time, Booker would go to see Li Feng from time to time, and he found that Li Feng didn't seem to have shown his true strength in the first half of today!
Then Li Feng and Ball cooperated, and soon Simmons received a pass from Li Feng, and got up next to him to score a three-pointer!
Although Simmons is not as famous as in previous seasons, he is indeed very strong in scoring ability now!
Constant high-intensity shooting training allows him to immediately rely on muscle memory to score on the court!
So much hard training day and night, although it still doesn't have as much training intensity as Kobe.
But Simmons felt like his scoring on the court had become easier. Now it is clear that my score has stabilized.
No wonder Kobe Bryant was so him at the beginning of the season...... Indeed, he has the potential to become a star player in the league.
It's just not enough training.
Booker: "We have to distance ourselves from our opponents in this quarter, they are retaining their strength, and we have given it their all!" ”
Booker said to the players around him as he dribbled the ball.
The Suns players present all had different expressions on their faces at this time.
It's true that playing against the 76ers today shouldn't be too difficult......
But their team's main guard Booker has no intention of giving up at all, and some players are thinking of going with Booker.
And some players are a little out of the way at this point.
But there is no way, the game will continue to be played.
Booker: "We should be able to maintain our offensive efficiency!" The opponent's three points are except for Li Feng...... It shouldn't be too accurate!
Remember! The offensive efficiency goes up, and we win half the way. I asked for the score difference to be about 10 points! ”
His physical strength can't play the whole game now, so his performance will be a little out of shape in the later stage.
In other words, Booker will definitely be rested in the third quarter, but with the wolf-like offensive state of the players on the Philadelphia side tonight.
If they don't open up the difference in advance, they may be directly defeated by the 76ers in the third quarter!
Booker tried to pass the ball several times, but finally shook his head.
He fought hard with Philadelphia, and finally let Li Feng foul, and then made 2 of 3 free throws!
Philadelphia didn't attack this time, Booker got the basketball and rushed straight over!
After attracting the bag of Ball and Simmons, Warren flew up directly after receiving the basketball on the other side and scored points!!
Brown saw that he wanted to take a timeout, but in the end he couldn't help it.
Philadelphia still didn't have three points, Booker got the basketball and wrestled with the opponent, and finally hit a three-point shot from Lonzo!
The difference has been stretched to 4 points at this time.
Booker kept looking up at the scorer, the offensive efficiency of the Philadelphia side was declining, and Li Feng himself came to score three points, but he also hit the iron.
Embiid's dunk after getting the ball was scratched by Alex.
Eventually, Warren got the rebound and ran over.
Booker jumped up shortly after receiving his pass and hit a long-range three-point shot!
44:37! At this time, the Suns have already seen hope!
Brown asked his players on the sidelines. In the end, he gritted his teeth and walked back.
Back on the bench and sitting, Brown was going to make no substitutions for this game.
Li Feng directly chose to go head-to-head with Booker, and in terms of foot movement, Li Feng finally passed Booker.
Obviously, Li Feng's breakthrough ability has improved a lot!
Booker had no choice but to watch Li Feng force a layup at Chris, and finally played 2+1!
Due to the ferocious play of the Philadelphia 76ers tonight, the game on the Suns' side suddenly turned into a headwind.
This time the Suns didn't score, and Booker immediately rushed out.
He was ready to defend the Philadelphia side, but in the end he was chased by the referee.
Lonzo came to the free throw line and hit all 2 free throws!
Then Booker directly received the basketball, and he faced the footage of the four players of the 76ers alone, which shocked many 76ers fans at the scene!
Booker acted as if one man was going to take on all four of them, and eventually Ilyasova and Simmons stepped back to defend their players.
And Booker was with Ball, and soon got up directly to hit a long-range 2-pointer!
Booker tonight seems to have the possibility of setting a record again! His scoring efficiency was very high today!
Li Feng communicated with his teammates, he didn't need to fight too hard with his opponent, and he survived the second quarter first!
